Some fans like to say Colin should've been with Marina or Penelope should've been with Lord Debling
They don't get that it doesn't matter what could've happened because Polin would've still been endgame
1. If Colin married Marina he would've found out the truth and after talking to Penelope he would figure out he was in love with her and made Pen his mistress.
2. If Colin married Marina and she died then Penelope would've written him and he would realize he was in love with her and married her.
3. If Penelope married Debling he would've been away for years leaving Pen where she would get closer to Colin and cheated making Colin her mistress.
4. If Pen married Debling and he died during his trip Colin would've gotten close to her and married her
5. If Penelope was a spinster for years she would've gotten close to Colin and he would realize he was in love with her then they would get married
6. If Colin was a bachelor he would've realized he was in love with Penelope and they still would've gotten married
It doesn't matter if you got what you wanted with them being with other people or alone because they would've still been endgame.
